how can i offload a 600m file without graphic tools?

[Leonardo M. Ramé]

Using "scp" you can copy data to/from your remote FreeBsd system. If the file is not on a local network, but on internet, you should use rsync instead of scp, it allows to continue copying if the network disconnects.

If your home computer is a Windows PC you can install Cygwin to be able to open a console and execute scp.
